Q42.The Lewis acid character of boron tri halides follows the order: (1) BCl3 > BF3 > BBr3 > Bl3 (2) Bl3 > BBr3 > BCl3 > BF3 (3) BBr3 > Bl3 > BCl3 > BF3 (4) BF3 > BCl3 > BBr3 > Bl3

What This Question Tests

This question assesses the understanding of Lewis acid strength in boron trihalides, which is an exception to the electronegativity rule due to the pฯ€-pฯ€ back bonding phenomenon.
